New Products and Technologies

MGT 5015 - Reverse Bayonet CouplingThe MGT line of connectors is an expansion of the GT-5015 series, offering a rugged environment connector in new finishes such as Durmalon and Black Zinc Nickel for military applications.

2M Micro-Miniature: The 2M Series product line is designed for interconnect applications requiring high performance and reduced size and weight. This smaller, high density, lightweight connector far exceeds the competition in quality and performance levels.

R-SATA Connectors: The new (Rugged) R-SATA style connector can be used as the primary internal storage interconnect for desktop and mobile PCs, connecting the system to peripherals such as hard drives, solid-state drives, optical drives, and removable magnetic media drives.

MRC Multi-Media Ruggedized Connectors: Amphenol Aerospace now offers a connector series that can be used for all of your multi-media needs. This series is capable of running Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0/ USB 3.0, HDMI and 10 Gigabit Ethernet when specified and designated to a specific configuration.

Alternate to Cadmium, RoHS-Compliant Platings:Commercial, industrial & military markets are rapidly moving away from restricted materials such as Cadmium (Cd) & Hexavalent Chromium (Cr(VI)). Both of these restricted materials are toxic and known carcinogens. Amphenol is offering an alternative finish that complies with all customer requirements tied to these specifications. MIL-DTL-38999, Rev L has established new service classes as alternative finishes addressing these requirements for Cadmium replacement.

Amphenol Integrated Systems tackles problems such as PWB routing, signal integrity, mechanical robustness, and thermal reliability concurrently rather than independently by value-added applications engineering support. Solving complex packaging challenges depends on making sure that environmental, mechanical, and electrical factors are all addressed at the system-level. By taking this system-level perspective and focusing on these factors, Amphenol Integrated Systems is able to meet your program's most challenging packaging requirements. We are an extension of your design team, providing expert design and applications engineering assistance every step of the way to ensure program success. This is a perspective that other connector, board, and backplane assembly suppliers cannot match.

Accessories

Amphenol offers a complete collection of backshells, protective caps, and other accessories for all of our D38999 connectors. Custom solutions are available upon request. Consult an Amphenol Representative for more information.

Backplane Systems

Amphenol is the leading manufacture of custom backplane assemblies using high - density, ruggedized, board to backplane interconnects. Our Backplane production capabilities include:

Press-Fit

Rigid and Rigid Flex PWB's

Surface Mount Soldering

Through-Hole Soldering

Hybrid Optical Electric

Conformal Coat

Amphenol Backplanes are required to perform in the most demanding environments such as commercial airliners, Army helicopters, Navy and Air Force fighters, C4I electronics, missiles, ground vehicles, and Navy warships. Our Backplanes are used on programs such as the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, F-22 Raptor, F-18 Super Hornet, Theater High Altitude Air Defense Radar, AH-64 Apache, RAH-66 Comanche, and AEGIS radars used on U.S. Navy warships.

Amphenol provides printed circuit processing capabilities that are among the world's most advanced, specializing in high technology multilayer backplane applications.

We are able to offer large panel sizes with high layer counts and features such as high-aspect ratio plating, small-diameter plated-through holes, and fine lines and spaces. Our applications engineers will help you sort through design and manufacturing issues such as board size, layer counts, trace routing, material selection, and power distribution. Investments at this stage ensure predictable, repeatable manufacturability with reduced costs. We offer this in conjunction with the Amphenol Corporation's complete breadth of interconnect products, giving our customers a one-stop solution.

As a worldwide leader and supplier in connector design, Amphenol offers a wide range of circular connectors for military and commercial air applications. We are a QPL’d supplier of the MIL-DTL-5015, MIL-DTL-26482, MIL-STD-38999, and the MIL-DTL-27599 products.

We offer a wide range of shell materials, plating finishes, and contact styles to fit the vast market requirements of today’s military and commercial air applications and environments. In addition, we will partner with our customers to find complete system solutions.

EMI Filter connectors are intended for use in temperatures from –55°C to +125°C. Attenuation will change with feed-through current and temperature.

To assure reliability, connectors may be subjected to an attenuation performance test verifying proper assembly and grounding of the filters. Attenuation data on filter per­formance is stated in reference to a 50 ohm impedance system in order to allow filter performance to be more eas­ily translated into real world impedances. Those interested in determining the expected filter perfor­mance in an impedance system other than 50 ohms may refer to page 285 of this catalog or may contact Amphenol Aerospace for further assistance.

Amphenol has become the leader in interconnection products through its long history of engineering expertise for product solution solving.New and innovative solutions are under development every day within our highly skilled engineering departments who are teamed with marketing product managers and production specialists.
